Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Listdom – Business Directory and Classified Ads Listings WordPress Plugin versions up to, and including, 3.7.0

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the shortcode parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 3.7.0, update to a version later than 3.7.0 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the shortcode parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
